Going "Prime"time

Happend to me last time I came here. Now I wait at this place for my 2200 appointment. Well see how that appointment works out.

 

Well... Appointment came and went... Ended up getting loaded at 0300. Three suicide coils, 10 chains, 9 coil racks, a tarp and God only knows how many bungies. Took me a couple hours to chain n tarp. Finally got the bills at 0545, sent my depart call and got to sleep sometime after 0630, after being up for over 24 hours straight. Back up at 1300, drove 390 miles and called it a night. Drop Friday in the best area there is to get a reload on Friday for my weekend load.

 

Well.... Dropped my coils early today. Picked up a load of tubing. Couldnt understand why I was given a 498 mile (total) run for the weekend. Found out when I spoke with the lady who gave me my bills. Turns out that this load was supposed to be picked up yesterday, but the driver never showed up to pick it up. So yet again, I clean up someone elses mess.

 

Ya I am. Not the first time Ive been sent to do this, and probably not the last.

 

Ya I am. Im the clean up crew...

 

Well back in the Campus Inn... Trucks over at Freightliner getting its needed service. Spent some time out on the training pad this afternoon. I love watching the new guys working on backing. Wasnt long ago I was in their place. Watching their truimphs, and failures reminds me where I was not long ago. Soon as I handle business here Ill be back out on the road. Finally got my Oklahoma alchohol permit, for what reason I have no clue. Not hauling alchohol on a flatbed, but... Not up to me.

 

Nope. We dont do vans anymore
